    ASSUMING IT’S REAL, melt on it would be about $290. Photos aren’t great so I can’t really tell the condition that well, but it could possibly be worth more.

    Do you have a scale to check the weight?

    I do have a scale, however, I don't have the coin with me currently.

    Weigh it when you get a chance. Should be 8.24 grams or so. Wear could bring it the weight down as could mint tolerances

    It and the $2-1/2 Indian are among the most counterfeited of U.S. coins.
